My dead rich uncle, a king of his tribe in Nigeria
I swear, when I tried to read through Matherne's writing, it came across just like an email wanting me to deposit $50,000 into an overseas bank account for which I would be compensated twelve million dollars. Can't wait to see how this one unfolds.
One hack attorney repeatedly pulls crap out of his ass and dumps it on the bench. Finally gives up when judge gets tired of all the crap piling up. Said attorney hires another hack attorney who in turn only has enough skill to pull crap out of his own ass...
exactly. In fact, historically, while it is likely the person grabbing the candy bar / whatever, who then stuffs it into their pocket, or walks around with it without going directly to a register will then walk out of the store, there are cases where the alleged shoplifter eventually does go to the register and pay for the item.
After my tour in the Military Police, I worked in retail security management for a while. It was a strict policy that we both had to keep eyes on the suspect from the moment of the potential theft until they left the store, and we could only confront them after they exited the store.
Gotta love it when one asshat falls out of headline-worthiness long enough to become so outraged that others have taken the spotlight that they find a way to retake that spotlight again.
"Sorry Carreon, Ortiz, Buhl, Prenda... We were here first and we own the right to take the spotlight back, so we're exercising our rights!"
You've got to stop providing your input in these threads. It shatters the troll who consistently claims you're unwilling to express your views here. :-)
It's in those TV commercials, where they rattle off the possible side effects. More and more include death as one of the side effects. So uh, they're covered.
"we had Lan parties to play Descent until the computer teacher uninstalled it"
Sadly, I'm much older than you. We had no such things as computers. VCRs had just become fashionable in our school's AV department, although film reels were still all the rage except for special occasions like taping the high school football games.
So I joined the AV club, and became the student in charge, reporting directly to our advisor. Which meant I was free to skip classes, using "has an assignment to operate film equipment" notes.
"Studies have found that an entire year sitting next to a WiFi access point gives you the equivalent radiation of 20 minutes on a mobile phone."
As if that's acceptable ! I've been using cell phones since 1996. And as a result, many years ago I began caring about personal freedom, human rights, and fairness in life. Clearly it was the radiation from those cell phones that fried my brain into thinking this way.
So clearly then, we can draw a direct correlation to the notion that the wifi I've been using for the past year and a half was responsible for even more of my brain being fried, and thus the reason I became a Techdirt insider. Clearly that decision was not rational or logical, so it must have been the fault of the wifi!
Thank God someone's thinking logically enough to save the children!
I fried out of tech support, and for the past 18 years have just suggested to friends and family - "have you tried rebooting your computer?" or "did you try to go to CNN.com after you couldn't get to your own web site?"
Both are essentially communicating the same thing you're saying, just in a semantically unique way :-)
or they'll discover a magnet on his refrigerator. "Your honor, clearly the magnet on his refrigerator is proof he chose to willfully destroy all traces from his computer..."
While it would be a game-changer if GSK does this, given their record, and the record of every major big pharma player, it's too easy for me to take a jaded look at the statement in the belief they'll find loopholes or may already have found them and thus it's why they're willing to support them.
The only other possibility is they reached a point where the lawsuits mounting against them or about to for the latest deaths, etc. must be so great that they're going to use this as a pre-positioning of "but we're already changing our ways, so please be lenient..." strategy.
holy crap can't you even change your own rant from time to time? Apparently you keep the core concept stored in your clipboard so you can rapidly paste it in, make a couple minor changes and submit.

Maybe she can ask for a change of venue to a more neutral location where a jury of her peers won't be pre-influenced by online noise. Now, where in the world does the internet NOT exist? That's the goal!
